Description

Highland Park in Kirkwall, on the Orkney Islands, is one of the northernmost distilleries in Scotland. It still floor-malts part of its barley and dries it with local peat, rich in heather and low in wood, which gives an aromatic, sweet smoke. Its whiskies mature mainly in European and American oak sherry casks. The 15 Year Old adds bourbon casks and more time in wood to the recipe, gaining depth.

Matured for 15 years in sherry casks and bourbon casks and bottled at 44%, it shows heather honey, peach, peat smoke and vanilla on the nose. The palate is creamy, with honey, peat smoke, orange and cinnamon. The finish is long, with peat smoke, spice and oak.

Balanced and complex, it works as well for a relaxed evening as for a special dinner. Serve neat or with a drop of water. It pairs with roast meats, mushrooms, nuts and hard cheeses.
